The newer Volkswagen Polo engines are mainly different because Volkswagen replaced the older, larger petrol engines with smaller, turbocharged 1.0-liter TSI engines. The new engine produces more power while also improving fuel efficiency and meeting stricter emission norms. For example, the newer 1.0 TSI engine makes around 110 PS power, which is slightly more than the older 1.2 TSI engine while keeping similar torque figures.

The new engine is also lighter and more fuel-efficient, but many enthusiasts feel the older 4-cylinder Polo engines were smoother and more refined compared to the newer 3-cylinder setup.

Honestly, the new Polo engine focuses more on efficiency, emissions, and modern performance, while older Polo engines are still loved for their smooth driving feel.

The new 1-liter engine will not only give more mileage than the previous engine, but in the case of power it will be almost the same. The old 1.2-liter MPI engine that used to come with polo hatchback, which according to ARAI had 16.47 km / liter mileage and now the engine with Polo will have a mileage of 18.78 km / liter.
 
Old and new engines have 75 bhp power and both produce the same power. Although, the new engine in the case of torque generates 95 Nm peak torque while the 1.2-liter old engine was capable of generating 110 Nm peak torque.
